<p>A truck body for use with a mining dump truck uses a support structure having primary and secondary supports fixed to panels defining the hauling cavity. The use of primary and secondary supports in combination with thinner plate steel produces a stable, ultra-light truck body that enables a larger load of mined material to be transported in a single haul cycle. The provision of a larger hauled load results in a substantial increase in the efficiency of the mining operation and reduced costs.</p> |
